I have several RX 470's that I have tested on gatelessgate for Ethereum, here is my feedback :

  • Produces on an average 1-2mh per GPU less than Claymore (this is after sitting through the painfully long optimisation process)
  • Consumes about 30% higher power compared to Claymore
  • Messed up the powerplay tables so completely that even after uninstalling the miner and using several tools to reset fan settings or OC settings etc my GPU fans were constantly at 100%, I had to uninstall and reinstall drivers entirely

Nice UI, but I dont see the point of using something thats clearly inferior to Claymore with the same devfee.

Did you use the recommended driver? At least the third problem shouldn't have happened.
As for performance, I just started to working on W0lf's kernel again, so please come back in a few weeks.

I did, I used 18.2.1 so I guess this was a bug report. This happened after running the optimization twice.

You should be able to reset the fan speed by either the "Restore Stock Settings" button or the "Reset All" button, then. GGS digs deeper into AMD's library and touches upon API's other tools do not. As for power consumption, I forgot to mention that I will update the optimizer so that it would maximize profitability, taking the cost of electricity into account.
